This paper examines the nature of paramilitary feuding among Ulster Loyalists. The growth in feuding between Loyalist groups has been an evident feature of discord following the 1994 ceasefires. Such feuding is cast as a competition between extensive criminal empires. Such analyses are challenged here. It is contended that the meaning of feuding is varied and responsive to those who wish to destabilise and those who promote the need for conflict transformation.
